Algebra.Com's Answer #119247 by Mariah24(4) ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! To combine the terms of variabels you simply match. \n" ); document.write( "First find all variables(letters) \n" ); document.write( "2x,5y,y\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now match the same variables, 5y and y both conatin y,you can combine them! \n" ); document.write( " *Any variable with no number is ALWAYS 1! For example: X,Y,Z-if you see any letter all by itself in a equation like these,let it stand for 1 when adding,subtracting,multipling,or dividing. \n" ); document.write( "Now to finsih the equation we have to ADD 5y + y(if y=1 then the combined variables equal 6y. \n" ); document.write( "After combining 5y and y and getting 6y lets finish,and solve! \n" ); document.write( "6y + 2x (now combine 5 +3=8) ANSWER-6y+2x+8 \n" ); document.write( " |
